In the News...Colorado floods

When I started accumulating historic weather event images lately, I didn't imagine that Eon's home, Boulder County, Colorado, would soon see such calamitous weather. I have added a few images to Eon's In the News collection. As is our policy, images in this gallery are available to download, free of charge and without watermarks, at all resolutions during the month of the news events.

Here's one picture from the group of images depicting what our fellow residents of Colorado are experiencing this week.

Looking back at Colorado history, I also came across this image from the disastrous flood of 1864, in an area that is now part of Denver:

Weird weather!

New on Eon is Weird Weather, a gallery we will be adding to frequently for the rest of the year. As we are in the midst of hurricane season, we have added a number of subgalleries related to famous--or infamous--storms of years past. We have a lot to add to this category, so check back frequently!

You asked, we answered....Many of you have inquired about using small, non-watermarked images from our collection for a variety of personal or educational uses. We have created a new tiered system of sizes. Every image can now be downloaded at a small size, with no watermarks, for you to use on your blog, or website, or in a presentation or email. Please retain our credit, and when possible, a link to the image page, so that other people can easily find and purchase a larger image if they need one.

Small: 500 pixels (largest side)- Free
Medium: 1024 pixels (largest side)- $2 or $5
Large (available only when original is large enough): 3000 pixels (largest side)- $8 and up (max is $33)
